摘要:
A field emission type electron source capable of permitting a resistance value between a cathode wiring and each of emitter cones to be set at substantially the same level and increasing packaging density of the emitter cones. The electron source includes stripe-like cathode wirings arranged on an insulating substrate. The cathode wirings each are formed with a plurality of windows, so that a plurality of island-like cathode conductors and resistance layers different in resistance value from each other are formed separate from the cathode wiring. Then, a resistance layer, an insulating layer and a gate electrode are formed thereon. The gate electrode and insulating layer are formed with apertures in a manner to be common to both, in which the emitter cones are arranged, resulting in emission of electrons from the emitter cones of each group unit being rendered uniform.

An imaging apparatus includes an electron emission array having electron sources arranged in matrix form and having a plurality of horizontal scan lines, a photoelectric conversion film opposed to the electron emission array, and a control and drive circuit configured to select one or more of the horizontal scan lines in a given video signal output period and to cause the electron sources included in the selected one or more horizontal scan lines to emit electrons toward the photoelectric conversion film to produce a video signal, wherein the control and drive circuit is configured to control electron emission of the electron emission array in a blanking period in response to a signal level of the video signal produced in the given video signal output period.
摘要:
Electron-emissive drive units of electron-emissive elements capable of being arranged with a smaller pitch. FET and emitter array units exist in matrix element areas partitioned by a control wiring and data wiring. An exemplary unit is composed of four emitter arrays. The control wiring and data wiring are driven by first and second drive circuits, respectively. Corresponding arrays between units are connected by selection wiring and driven by a third drive circuit. The third drive circuit drives each unit of data wiring every time the drive circuit sequentially drives the four units of control wiring, and the emitter array drive circuit drives each emitter array selection wiring every time the drive circuit sequentially drives the three units of data wiring. Electrons can be emitted in units of arrays smaller than the unit.

A flat-type fluorescent display device permitting luminous display to be observed through only a front glass cover while substantially increasing luminance. A front glass cover is provided on an inner surface thereof with FECs constituted by cathode lines, insulating layers, emitters and gate lines so as to define light-permeable sections between FECs. A substrate is formed opposite to the light-permeable sections with anodes constituted by anode-lines and phosphor layers. Electrons emitted from the FECs impinge on the anodes, leading to luminescence of the phosphor layer, which is then observed through the light-permeable sections of the front glass cover.

A getter device capable of being re-activated as required and arranged in a narrow space in an envelope. The getter is arranged in a layer-like manner in an envelope of an electronic element to provide, in the envelope, a film-like getter for keeping an interior of the envelope at a vacuum. Electrons emitted from an electron feed section are impinged on the getter to activate it. The getter activated adsorbs thereon gas in an envelope of an image display device.

A field emission cathode device capable of permitting when short-circuiting occurs between any of emitters and a gate, a block in which the block is formed to be separated from the remaining blocks and preventing a material fused at the time of the short-circuiting from scattering. A cathode conductor arranged on a substrate is formed with a plurality of cutouts, in which resistive layers are arranged. The resistive layers each are provided with terminals through which the resistive layer is connected to the cathode conductor. An insulating layer is arranged so as to cover the resistive layers and cathode conductor and a plurality of emitters are formed on each of the resistive layers. A gate conductor is formed on the insulating layer so as to be positioned around a distal end of each of the conical emitters. Short-circuiting between any of the emitters and the gate conductor causes the terminals to be fused. The insulating layer prevents the fused material from scattering.

Electron excited luminous element capable of ensuring satisfactory emission characteristics of emitters for an extended period of time. A hydrophobic insulating film is formed on a glass anode substrate so as to cover an exposed portion thereof between anode electrodes. This keeps the glass anode substrate from being directly attacked by electrons, to thereby prevent decomposition of water and the like contained in a surface of the glass, resulting in oxygen which causes deterioration in emission characteristics of emitter cones being kept from being released from the glass.
